Text Quotes
Wit invents; inspiration reveals. The inventions of wit are conceits - metaphors and paradoxes - that discover the secret correspondences that unite beings and things among and with themselves; inspiration is condemned to dissipate its revelations - unless a form can be found to contain them.  (Paradoxes Quotes) Periods of change are full of paradoxes. They’re difficult but exciting, frightening but freeing. Letting go of old patterns that no longer work for us is exhilarating.  (Paradoxes Quotes) The artist is still a little like the old court jester. He’s supposed to speak his vicious paradoxes with some sense in them, but he isn’t part of whatever the fabric is that makes a nation.  (Paradoxes Quotes) One of the paradoxes of globalization is that, in the developing world, we’ve seen massive reductions in property.  (Paradoxes Quotes) Though we talk peace, we wage war. Sometimes we even wage war in the name of peace. Does that seem paradoxical? Well, war is not afraid of paradoxes  (Paradoxes Quotes) I’m into paradoxes. I wanted to make an album about them, but the group told me I was a pretentious fart. They were right  (Paradoxes Quotes) We live on the brink of disaster because we do not know how to let life alone. We do not respect the living and fruitful contradictions and paradoxes of which true life is full  (Paradoxes Quotes) The bed is a bundle of paradoxes: we go to it with reluctance, yet we quit it with regret; we make up our minds every night to leave it early, but we make up our bodies every morning to keep it late  (Paradoxes Quotes) The way of paradoxes is the way of truth. To test Reality we must see it on the tight rope. When the Verities become acrobats we can judge them  (Paradoxes Quotes) When we talk of freedom and opportunity for all nations, the mocking paradoxes in our own society become so clear they can no longer be ignored  (Paradoxes Quotes) There are many of these apparent philosophical paradoxes or contradictions which don’t concern me anymore  (Paradoxes Quotes) Everything must be recaptured and relocated in the general framework of history, so that despite the difficulties, the fundamental paradoxes and contradictions, we may respect the unity of history which is also the unity of life  (Paradoxes Quotes) There is in my opinion a great similarity between the problems provided by the mysterious behavior of the atom and those provided by the present economic paradoxes confronting the world  (Paradoxes Quotes) I learned to make my mind large, as the universe is large, so that there is room for paradoxes  (Paradoxes Quotes) And this is the strangest of all paradoxes of the human adventure; we live inside all experience, but we are permitted to bear witness only to the outside. Such is the riddle of life and the story of the passing of our days  (Paradoxes Quotes) The paradox is really the pathos of intellectual life and just as only great souls are exposed to passions it is only the great thinker who is exposed to what I call paradoxes, which are nothing else than grandiose thoughts in embryo  (Paradoxes Quotes) Yes. The way people behave, the paradoxes, the contradictions. All these things we have to live with and still pretend that everything is only black or white. That, I think, is the most interesting thing in human nature. The fact that we have to do one thing and pretend something else. That’s when it becomes very interesting. If you can literally speak the way you feel, then it’s not interesting anymore. It’s when you have to lie that it becomes interesting  (Paradoxes Quotes) I think one of the paradoxes of writing fiction is when people enjoy it, they want it to be real. So they look for connections  (Paradoxes Quotes) It is one of those simple but beautiful paradoxes of life: When a person feels that he is truly accepted by another, as he is, then he is freed to move from there and to begin to think about how he wants to change, how we wants to grow, how he can become different, how he might become more of what he is capable of being  (Paradoxes Quotes) The best therapy for emotional blocks to math is the realization that the human race took centuries or millennia to see through the mist of difficulties and paradoxes which instructors now invite us to solve in a few minutes  (Paradoxes Quotes) When the mathematician says that such and such a proposition is true of one thing, it may be interesting, and it is surely safe. But when he tries to extend his proposition to everything, though it is much more interesting, it is also much more dangerous. In the transition from one to all, from the specific to the general, mathematics has made its greatest progress, and suffered its most serious setbacks, of which the logical paradoxes constitute the most important part. For, if mathematics is to advance securely and confidently, it must first set its affairs in order at home  (Paradoxes Quotes) The divergent series are the invention of the devil, and it is a shame to base on them any demonstration whatsoever. By using them, one may draw any conclusion he pleases and that is why these series have produced so many fallacies and so many paradoxes  (Paradoxes Quotes) I got a lot of paradoxes in my life. I guess I’m a real confused person, but there are some focused parts to my life now, and I’m slowly trying to put all the pieces back together  (Paradoxes Quotes) Periods of change are full of paradoxes. They’re difficult but exciting, frightening but freeing. Letting go of old patterns that no longer work for us is exhilarating  (Paradoxes Quotes) Well, since paradoxes are at hand, let us see how it might be demonstrated that in a finite continuous extension it is not impossible for infinitely many voids to be found  (Paradoxes Quotes) Like life and people, it is full of paradoxes. Etiquette is based on tradition, and yet it can change. Its ramifications are trivialities, but its roots are in great principles  (Paradoxes Quotes) ... in one sense a foundation is a security blanket: If you meticulously follow the rules laid down, no paradoxes or contradictions will arise. In reality there is now no guarantee of this sort of security  (Paradoxes Quotes) The paradoxes of today are the prejudices of tomorrow, since the most benighted and the most deplorable prejudices have had their moment of novelty when fashion lent them its fragile grace  (Paradoxes Quotes) Play not with paradoxes. That caustic which you handle in order to scorch others may happen to sear your own fingers and make them dead to the quality of things  (Paradoxes Quotes)
